Rescheduling Winter Session not unprecedented: Vijay Goel

17/12/2017

The Opposition has been claiming that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Centre delayed the Winter Session to avoid raking up key including GST ahead of the Gujarat and Himachal Assembly polls. He requested for cooperation by all parties in order to make the Parliament session a fruitful one.

"Many issues are there that will be discussed, provided the government should take interest and create such an atmosphere, which is up for discussion. Several issues would be raised by the opposition and the government would obviously give its response", he said.

The Congress on Friday said the party is always in favour of constructive suggestions, but is unfortunately stopped by the Opposition, whenever they raise important issues.

"Rather than demanding apology from Prime Minister, they (opposition) should apologise for what they have done". Giving the details of the proceedings of the session, he added that 25 Bills are listed in the Lok Sabha and 39 Bills are pending in the Rajya Sabha which would be taken up and disposed of according to priority.

The government is expected to table 25 pending bills and 14 new ones, including a bill providing Muslim women the right to seek maintenance in case of triple talaq, during the session that would continue till January 5, 2015. "For the first time, a Prime Minister has accused Former PM, former Vice President and diplomats of conspiring with Pakistan for Gujarat elections. Democracy will surely strengthen", PM Modi had said while addressing the media inside Parliament's premises.

Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Vijay Goel on Friday said the current Winter Session of Parliament is not the only one which has been shortened or rescheduled. But due to global warming winter has not come in full force.

At a meeting of top NDA leaders, Modi asked the ruling alliance to strongly push the government's legislative agenda in the Winter Session of Parliament, sources said. "I hope for positive and innovative arguments", Modi said.
